This was on the front page very briefly before disappearing completely. It’s a shame that the mods are presumably biased against conversations like this when similar conversations about anti-female sentiments in tech are tolerated, if not encouraged.
My first thought too was that this got dropped more as protecting-an-asset (Wish has a ton of SF-area investors) than stopping-a-conversation.
Out of curiosity (banned book effect) over this, I did read through the article. The tone is way more confrontational than informative! My bet is that it was the tone that got it killed.
In that same vein though, is there a list somewhere of all the articles that got pulled? It might be fun to read through more of these “banned books”.
I agree about the tone. Even if the guy has legitimate grievances, it reads like a crazy person wrote it. Each of these encounters seems to result ever increasing incidents of harassment and abuse, but those allegations of abuse are also vague and non-specific.

Is this satire? If not, I'm not judging what happened to this guy - haven't finished reading. But he leads with this.
You wrote that your job has "a $1,000,000+ paycheck".
Why don't you use a fraction of your paycheck to hire a lawyer and see if it's worth taking to court?
